I have to travel from Preston Lancs. to Portsmouth to bring my wife
back home. I have until Friday night to get her back.

Due to the severe weather we are experiencing and the short time I
have to prepare, can anyone recommend a web site that will be up to
date, quite quickly, on road conditions and closures due to the
weather conditions please?

No, but have considered getting her to travel back by train to save
the double road journey in potentially difficult conditions?


I reckon that a ticket on the day will cost well in excess of £200-00.


As has been pointed out, no it won't - unless she has to travel in the
more expensive times of the day. She could have had a walk on return
fare for less than the price of the petrol for the double trip (assuming
you took her down)

I Can't see her paying that, as she thinks of me as a free lift back.


Ask her to fill up the tank before driving back ? :-)


Dave the mug.


No comment :-)
